Disappointed
The property needs some upkeep, due to heavy rain the door from the kitchen leaked a small lake, the first night we had an water leak under the bathroom vanity, owner did send a plumber and was repaired, ceiling fan in the day bed room had no bulb, I purchased a bulb and tried to install but found out there were no threads on the bulb socket, front door doesn’t close completely leaving a gap to allow bugs or small critters in, patio furniture pads are basically destroyed not really useable, had to message the owner for WiFi password took almost a day for a response, only 1 tv remote had batteries in them, no paper towels, no hair dryer, storm door on back bedroom doesn’t close & lock, the 2 bedroom doors did not close completely, the closet door in the room with the day bed did not close either, had to purchase more toilet paper also, I not sure of VRBO’s home requirements to rent but this home needs to be retired!!

It got the job done but..
Best part was comfortable beds. Beyond that, the positives dwindle. It got the job done for a place to sleep and shower but we didn’t not want to spend time there. Although we realize we arrived a few days after a storm, we were surprised by the broken glass door. More shattered pieces of glass fell off each time we closed the door. We could only sweep the glass into a pile as there was no dustpan. The two dead cockroaches we found may have be unremarkably common to some guests, when coupled with an unclean shower it seemed less forgivable. We reached out via message to the host but in the end had to call to get a response. He was going to come to tape the door and drop off a dust pan, but never did. I tried to be kind and start towels in the laundry when we checked out, but couldn’t get the machine to start. He mentioned significant storm damage on another property— which is entirely possible based on the extend of damage in the neighborhood. For this reason, benefit of the doubt compels me not to rate it lower.

Bitter sweet
The Host Micheal was so kind and thoughtful. Unfortunately there was a bad Storm the weekend we stayed. The power was out in the neighborhood when arrived. Micheal still made accommodations for us despite the unforeseen circumstances. He was extremely professional I definitely recommend His home.

Birthday Stay
I stayed here for my birthday and I had such a good time. The decor was a little dated and it was a bit dirty inside the fridge and the bathroom and it had a strange smell upon arrival but I ended up enjoying my stay. It doesn’t look exactly like the pictures but it is still a decent place to stay. The neighborhood is quiet and safe.

Family trip
So arriving to the property, the key wasn’t in the lock box. I had to call the host more than 10 times in order for him to answer the phone. The cleanest of the house was not to my standards. I had to go buy my own clean supplies and come through and re-clean the house. The master bathroom did not have any plugs for me to be able to plug up my flat iron to do my hair. The patio furniture was disgusting. It was strawberries or blueberries or whatever the berries was that was on the trees all in the parking lot or were we park which means it was on the bottom of our shoe we were track it all in the house and just a lack of communication from the host I’m rating this house 3.5

Good loaction
Beds are very comfy. House was clean and bedding was fresh. Trees in back yard have grown up quite a bit since pictures but it was still a nice backyard sitting area. May need to change cushions out on the outdoor furniture as a pet has chewed them. But they are still usable.

Great stay for a small family
The house was clean and in a great neighborhood but with easy access to major roads. Checking in was super easy and the house was cozy for an overnight stay with our three toddlers.

Big space and a lot of room
Great impression from the outside and inside. Unfortunately, the key we were given to enter the property did not work. It was hard to contact the owners. Once we did, we waited about 45 min for her to arrive while we were waiting inside our car. The property inside was visually appealing, it was clean, lots of room. The shower head in one of the bathrooms was a problem, as well as the stools in the dining table. We do consider coming back.
